This is a great app that I have been using through the rapid beta. If you were too late to get a beta slot, you can now get it from the App Store. Be sure to give it a great review if you like it!

This app is amazing and the development has been so rapid, I can’t imagine how it is going to be in 30 days!

[–] [email protected] 65 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Memmy has been my go-to client for the last few weeks. It feels the most like Apollo, which is what I was going for when searching for a mobile client. There was some buzz a while ago about the Lemon app, but that developer seems to have just vanished with no word on any progress. I'm not locking myself into any app for now, I still want to see who can deliver the best quality this early on, but Memmy has been winning so far.

I love Memmy. Wefwef is good but Memmy feels so much more polished and nice. Plus I love the sunset theme as a nod to Apollo

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Just loaded up Memmy and enjoying the sunset theme as well. I’m impressed so far.

Memmy is my go-to as well. I’m gonna be waiting a few months and then trying out other clients to see how they’ve matured, and seeing if there’s any others I like more than Memmy.

As for the Lemon app, I may be misremembering things but I’m quite certain that they merged with another Lemmy client called Limbo and formed Liftoff for Lemmy.

[–] [email protected] 34 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Trying it out right now! So far looks great!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

I forgot I wasn't using Apollo haha. Super solid Reddit replacement.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago (6 children)

Pretty cool. It’s great to see so many clients on the market.

One minor feature I wish every iOS client had is better password manager integration. Normally on login forms, the app can provide a hint to the OS of what domain you’re logging in to; then when you click the password box, the password manager can suggest to autocomplete that domain’s password. Currently every time I set up a new app, I have to type programming.dev twice. Once in the “which lemmy instance are you connecting to” box and once in LastPass’s search bar. It’s. A minor inconvenience, but I wonder if clients could pass along the lemmy URL to the password manager after I’ve typed it the first time.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I don’t think they can, as is. The app itself has the url imbedded into it. The only way they could get it to work is by authenticating from a web page that indicates where it is.

For UK users, I had to search for lemmy and scroll to find the app. It wouldn’t show up searching for mommy

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago

"memmy for lemmy" worked for me

Just installed it. I can’t figure out how to upvote comments?

[–] [email protected] 42 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Swipe to the right. Swipe left to reply.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Also swipe further to the right to downvote.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Loving these features

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I always thought it was swipe, but slide makes more sense now that I think about it.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago

I’m currently very happy with wefwef but looking forward to giving this a try!

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Very nice app! I only just joined the fediverse and was disappointed at there being no iOS apps. This one seems amazing so far!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (6 children)

There’s many good apps.

There’s

Memmy Wefwef Mlem Liftoff Thunder / liftoff

And soon to come lemon

I think there’s others but those are the ones I remember off the top of my head.

Kudos to the team they really made the reddit to lemmy transition a good experience with this app.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Very impressed with memmy, we are so spoiled for choice with wefwef, memmy, and mlem!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I’ve been using the beta version for a couple of weeks and it’s pretty solid. There are some features I miss from Apollo when I was on Reddit, but I’m hopeful they are coming.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Its still early development and updates seem to get put out pretty quick, so I imagine a lot more quality of life stuff will get added now that it’s actually on the appstore

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

This is huge for the adoption of lemmy! Thanks so much. Using it now!

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

i already have memmy issues

(i’ll see myself out now)

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

As a leftie who’s been on the beta, I sincerely appreciate the upvote / downvote arrows being on the left!!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

This app is an absolute banger! Keep up the great work♥️

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Reminder.

If you enjoy Memmy please leave a positive review in the App Store.

Giving this a try! Have been using wefwef and pretty happy with it. This looks promising though!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

This app is just great. I’ve been a user basically from day one, and I’ve seen it improve exponentially, for real. At this point, I’m just tuning on the communities to get the content I want, but experience-wise I don’t miss Apollo, which is saying a lot about the state of Memmy.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Amazing work team! This will definitely help me and I would think a lot of users who are migrating across from Reddit. One minor thing; I can’t seem to get my profile tab to load at the moment but I figure there’s still a few bugs that need ironing out!

Pretty solid app, I’m done searching for alternatives and stopped using the web app. 5/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

well done; the app is quite smooth and seems to have apollo-overtones - kudos!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wow I’m loving it so far! Although why is the “oled” theme inverse? The table cells are black and the background is grey, that’s awful for legibility. Every other iOS app has black background with grey table cells

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Try restarting the app after making the change.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Should we stop using the testflight version then?

I’ve been using wefwef the past week and just installed Memmy today. ww is great, but I’m really enjoying Memmy so far.

Is this app still planning to release on Android at some point?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Do we stay on test flight or move over?
